Cambridge Audio CXN100 - Separate High Resolution WiFi Network Audio Player, Streamer and Pre Amp with Display Featuring Chromecast Built-in, Internet Radio and Sabre Reference DAC - Lunar Grey

The CXN100 is an excellent audiophile level music streamer! I have a very respectable hifi system, and my streamed music has never sounded so good. I subscribe to Spotify and Tidal, and am finally able to fully appreciate the high resolution music that they offer. I am also streaming FLAC music files from a flash drive plugged into the CXN100, and these sound great as well. Music through the CXN100 has a huge soundstage, and is very detailed, and excellent dynamics. The Cambridge app is also easy to set up and connect, and easy to use.

I am very happy with this Cambridge Audio product. I am using it to play premium Amazon Music FLAC files. The IPhone app works great too. I think the only wish is that it also had an HDMI port.

I bought the CXN100 to stream music through services like Qobuz—I wasn’t interested in managing digital files or navigating endless setup options. After a lot of research, I chose the CXN100 and have been very happy with it. Setup was quick and intuitive, and the interface—both on the device and in the app—is clean and easy to use. The sound quality is excellent: clear, detailed, and balanced. If you want a high-quality streamer that’s simple to set up and just works, the CXN100 is a great option. Those who want deep customization might find it limited, but for straightforward streaming, it’s ideal.

I bought this to go with my Cambridge setup consisting of an AXR85 receiver and AXC35 cd player. I’m using it for two things. Streaming and as a dac for my tv. As a streamer I can’t fault it. As a dac for the tv I’m finding too much lag between the picture and sound. I never had this issue on the $20 dac from Bestbuy. Didn’t expect to have this on an expensive piece of kit. For now it’s 4/5 stars for me until there’s a patch for this or I find a work around.

Love it! Even my wife who always wonders why I waste/spend time just “listening to music” noticed the difference. The Cambridge is connected to a McIntosh C2300 amp going to Sonus Faber tower speakers. It’s like listening to your favorite songs for the first time. There were some negative reviews about the quality of the sound. Whatever your music source, make sure the settings are so that you get the best music stream. For example, on Spotify, set the audio quality to “Lossless.” Love the depth of sound. Very pleased with my investment!

Great product. This unit is awesome. Highly recommend.

Beautiful piece of equipment that works as designed and sounds wonderful. Recommended!

First this thing looks cheap. The display is absolutely ugly, looks like something from the 70's and not in a good way. The sound is life less and flat. I was wanting to upgrade from my bluesound node 2. This cxn100 doesn't hold a candle to the bluesound. No tone control. No sub out no remote all of which i was willing to over look until I heard the garbage sound this thing puts out. I tried it with my airpulse a300 pros it was terrible. Then we went to the living room played it through my Naim amp and wharfedale speakers, once again horrible, hallow and just lifeless. The app is just as bad. I don't know if you can see my other reviews, I don't usually trash products, but this thing is terrible. My bang and olufsen h95s sounded like a old-fashioned set of 1980s headphones. I couldn't be more disappointed.
